Date Received

Public Questions to the Town Council

Submitted By

17.09.2025

RE: a question regarding Phase 2b (Sports Facilities) and 3 of Treledan

 

Should not the land zoned for commercial/employment use be the next phase of the development as Saltash is critically lacking in the availability of employment land in the town and we are likely to lose some businesses due to the lack of their ability to expand?

 

Chair of Saltash Chamber of Commerce

17.09.25

RE: a question regarding Phase 2b (Sports Facilities) and 3 of Treledan

 

Is it not time for the local/commercial area to be developed so that local residents have nearby facilities?

When is it planned to start these planned areas?

 

Vice Chair of Community Enterprises

 

Bloor Homes discussed trigger points for various aspects of the development. This area is due to be delivered before 2029 with access to the site being improved by the redevelopment of the Stoketon Cross roundabout  providing further access to develop the commercial area.

 

In answer to question two - Bloor Homes answered that the shop unit will be built alongside residential units with construction to be timed to ensure there are enough residents on site to support amenities and avoid underuse. Bloor Homes indicated that full self-sufficiency of this area of the site is not expected within the next 12 to 18 months.

 

It was RESOLVED to note.

PA25/05086

Mr C Parsonage, Parsonage Developments Ltd – Hole Farm, Tamar View Industrial Estate, Avery Way, Carkeel PL12 6LD

Retrospective application for the development of 21 industrial units [B2] with associated roads, parking and landscaping as approved by Decision Notice PA20/00982 Dated 19.04.22

Ward: Trematon

Date received: 15/08/2025

Response Date: 19/09/2025

 

Members discussed the retrospective application at length.

 

It was proposed by Councillor Brady, seconded by Councillor Stoyel and resolved to RECOMMEND REFUSAL due to:

 

1.    The proposed development would have a detrimental effect on the character and amenity of the surrounding area;

 

2.    The narrow access road presents serious accessibility issues, which would negatively affect the development as a whole, including its impact on surrounding units, facilities, and shops and raises serious safety concerns;

 

3.    The proposal would compromise the operation and accessibility of nearby amenities, particularly the recycling centre.

 

Councillor McCaw was invited and returned to the meeting.
